Well, maybe "too noisy" is an overstoverstatement 😂 it will definitely work but it's super sub optimal I was discussing this with @JTEX and you can see some of their measurements here: https://forum.pedalpcb.com/threads/whats-up-with-the-buffers-in-cornish-designs.19029/post-235436 The TL072...

TL072s are too noisy for that application - you'll be adding more noise than pretty much any guitar pickup inherently has - I would recommend an OPA1678. As for phase inverting balanced outputs? Haven't seen any schematics/products floating around for an active version of that - only those...

Chorus, phaser, two delays; one slapback and one around the 350-400msec range - get some She Sells Sanctuary going.

Ear training is a separate skill to work on, both in parallel and in conjunction with your guitar playing skills. Your father in law has probably been using his ear to learn and play music for longer than a lot of people have been alive. I have played alongside and with some great guitarists and...

This honestly sounds very cool - I find wampler effects in general to sound just 'right.' Big ups to you, too, Ben! If I was in the USA and didn't have to deal with customs, I probably would have gotten one. Thanks for doing your part in the fight against cancer!

My problem is I have a bad habit of learning the start of the start of songs and solos and then just no finishing them. I have done this so many times it's actually a problem :ROFLMAO: On an unrelated note, I am going for an ADHD diagnosis in March :P

Tho Those are some ambitious pot placements 😂 Wouldn't 9mm alpha pots have made more sense there?

Haha sorry, I got carried away taking the mick out of marketing copy there :ROFLMAO: I saw some of your PCBs available as kits on musikding and I was very impressed! I thought they looked very interesting. If you made your Lab Rat available there, I'd snap it up in heartbeat.

That would be very cool of you! But unfortunately you don't have sub-miniature tubes forged under a waxing moon on an overcast July day, with germanium diodes made just so, while mercury was in retrograde, so honestly, how much of a fuzz is it really ;)

That's certainly interesting! Is it like a two transistor topology then, but Q1 has been replaced with a tube?

Thanks for the input. There are some available on Reverb right now, all from the UK. I can't really justify spending the asking price on one of them just out of idle curiosity.

Thank you, that's exactly what I was looking for. Very nice build btw, looks fabulous.

I've been intrigued by the idea of an all tube fuzz pedal for quite some time. I know that it probably is at least possible, at the basic level it should just be a bunch of cascading stages of preamp tube or a few. One of the DOD guys claims to have built one in the 60's when he was asked by a...

Sorry if this is a dumb question, but do you make PCB files/schematics available for your builds? I don't really know what the common practice amongst pedal creators here is, sorry if I'm committing a faux pas here haha

Thanks for clarifying, that makes sense (y)

Too late, it's already been used in a mission critical part for a satellite launch ;)

Thank you for explaining. Much appreciated!

This is brilliant. Will be using it. 👍

Sorry to come back to that, but where would I put the voltage divider on the schematic? Is it between R3 (now a 1M pot) and 9V? What value should I use for the extra resistor to make the voltage divider? Sorry if these are dumb questions haha

Also very interesting! Don't MOSFETs have higher noise floors than JFETs at lower frequencies? Would it make sense to build it with a JFET instead? Or is that just CMOS architecture? I think a 9v1 zener should also be placed between the gate and the source as protection.
